Dry skin, like dry hair, is caused by too little oil from the sebaceous glands and a low moisture content in the skin. The skin is rough and coarse to the touch, and may be dull, ashy or pale. The skin is thin and tends to be sensitive to light and chemicals. A good way to treat dry skin is to keep the body hydrated by drinking lots of water. About 10 eight ounce glasses a day should be sufficient. Soaps, which are alkaline and can dry the skin out, should be replaced with moisturizing cleansers. After showering, the skin should be patted -- not rubbed -- dry and a lotion containing a moisturizer like shea butter or lanolin should be applied.
